  • Go to ebay. Dispute console. Open dispute. This will take you to paypal. Fill out the details. Done :)
  • It won't allow you to open a paypal dispute until 8 days have passed


  • It will if the seller is NARU'd

    Watches are a commonly faked items so maybe they have been suspended after someone reported them for fakes?

    Really though there is no way of knowing why ebay suspend people or whether the ban is temporary or permanent.
